Hi All What is the difference between a bultaco Sherpa 198a and a 199a Thanks in advance egsmyth

I haven't got round to getting a manual for my Sherpa yet and I need new fork seals so I am going to do a fork strip and re-build.How much oil do I put back in?

This year is the 50th. aniversary of Bultaco CEMOTO 1958-2008. Trials bikes started to be built in 1964 with the first 3 prototypes of the Model 10 "Sammy Miller". Happy birthday, and thanks for so many trials enjoyed. Thanks BJ for this pics, it would be nice to see more Bultaco photos here.

Thought you Bultaco Twin shock guys would enjoy this poster from 1973.I had this signed years back by Martin at a US WR.JR

I gentleman over on TeamBultaco (Yahoo Group) posted these pictures. With his permission I'm reposting them here. Does anyone know the history behind this bike? Were they ever produced?

The offset pivot arrangement for the brake shoes in both wheels of my M198 had me wondering if there were brake shoes from a different bike that would fit and not have the offset pivots. I'm trying to maximise the performance of the brakes by avoiding the eccentric loading against the drum that the standard bultaco pivot arrangement creates. I have looked in the EBC catalogue and there were a few alternatives that looked like possibilities. Fantic 240 shoes appeared the closest in the catalogue. They are for the same diameter drum and are the same width shoe and use a standard pivot arrangement. I know I can have the existing shoes modified by welding and machining then…

Hi all ,a few photos of my near finished 199b ,just need a nice seat & side stand (hint hint )

I need help from you Bulto experts(please)!What is the best way to achieve a one finger clutch operation on a 199?Years ago I used a front brake actuating arm on the clutch to give more leverage(but I'm struggling to get hold of one at the moment!!!)and also backed off the clutch nuts at the expense of clutch slip when pulling a high gear.I can probably rig up a lever system in order to give some mechanical advantage,as I have on my B40 but on the Bult it will be difficult to package it neatly.Any suggestions?Also,is it worth replacing the Bing carb with perhaps a Mikuni?Your replies are appreciated!

HI EVERYONE , ANYBODY NO THE TORQUE SETTINGS FOR CYLINDER HEAD NUTS FOR BULLY 199B ,IVE GOT A HAYNES & CLYMER MANAUL BUT THERE FOR THE EARLIER BIKES (SIX STUD FIXINGS) MINE HAS THE EIGHT AS YOU WILL NO. THANKS IN ADVANCE

Hi everyone, anybody no of any aftermarket or another kickstart that will fit a bulto,i had a bulto in the 80s that had a nice alloy one fitted to it.Ive tried everywhere for info with no luck ,maybe somebody can remember on here .THANKS

What petrol/oil ratio do folks use nowadays with synthetic and semi-sythetic oils?I seem to recall using 32:1 with semi -synthetic back in the early eighties.Also ,what is the recommended sparkplug for a 199?Can anyone help?Cheers,Alt.

Since we are on the subject of 199s I have a question about the rear brake. I just converted my 199a from a left brake / right shift back to a left shift / right brake set up. I used an original bultaco cable that runs through the frame from the right brake lever to the left break drum. While the brake does not work nearly as good (as I expected) as it did with the rod action of left brake peddle set up it does not work nearly as good as I thought the cable might work. I find the right brake lever comes up to high for easy access with the foot and the braking action of the rear wheel is less than I thought it would be. Do any of you have any tricks or advice on how to g…

Hello all, just rode Pa's 350 Bulty 199 (1979) in a trial at the weekend, and i'm still suffering with left arm tiredness (boo hoo) The clutch is really heavy (and virtually useless). Any pointers or tips? The Italjet is having a bit of a rest, so I'll use the Bulty for a couple of trials. Cheers

Hi everyone ,im still on the look out for some good used stanchions for my 199b, but cant find any ,does anyone no if there is any other make that used the same 35mm fork (stanchions)thanks

Hi all can anybody advise me if there is anyway I can upgrade the footresrs on my m80 without cutting off the mounting lugs, is there anything else available ie pursang etc chers Mark
